    Does That Make Me Crazy?

    The official 4K video for “Crazy” by Gnarls Barkley from the album ‘St. Elsewhere’ – available now! Lyrics I remember when I remember, I remember when I lost my mind There was something so pleasant about that place Even your emotions have an echo in so much space And when you’re out there without care…

  • Taking Care Of Rain

    Taking Care Of Rain

    Saying no is so much harder than it should be. Like, ridiculously hard. Not because I don’t want to say no, but because somewhere along the way, I got trained to prioritize everyone else’s comfort over my own peace. My own safety. My own gut feeling that something’s not okay here. That I don’t like…

  • Five OH

    Five OH

    What If the Second Half Is the Best Half? Life right now is both deeply beautiful and absolutely bonkers. Like, objectively good and subjectively gutting. And I’m not talking about most of it publicly because, well, some of it isn’t mine to share. Other people’s stories, other people’s pain, other people’s triumphs. But let’s just…

  • Let Us Pray

    Let Us Pray

    Let me tell you about my church. It doesn’t have pews.There’s no pulpit.No sermon. No congregation. No doctrine. Just breath.A candle.A floor.And a body that has carried nearly five decades of living. And at 4am—yes, 4am—I show up to worship. I used to think movement had to be useful. Had to produce something. Speed, shape,…

  • Well, Actually…

    Well, Actually…

    Can trust be regained? My knee-jerk answer is no. Just—no. Like a slammed door or a dropped vase or a delete key hit too hard. Something cracked, shattered, glitched, deleted. You don’t unshatter. You don’t uncrack. You just are now. With a line through the middle of you. Except then my brain, that sneaky bastard,…

  • Movement Pending

    Movement Pending

    Time to Dance (Eventually) I want to be that old person in the corner with stories. Not the cranky “back in my day” kind—more like the cool one, with glitter in their laugh lines and a twinkle that makes the kids inch closer like they’re about to hear something forbidden or fantastic. I want to…

    Chaos, Creativity, and the Lofi Loop

    Can creativity be taught? Absolutely. It can be fostered and developed just like any other skill. But that doesn’t mean it always feels easy. But today? I don’t wanna do the work. Bleh. But honestly, I never want to go into work, so that tracks. My brain is bouncing between so many thoughts – U,…

  • Growth Through Challenge

    Growth Through Challenge

    What does it mean to get out of one’s comfort zone? This question has been haunting me lately. It popped up yesterday, and here it is again today. Did I answer it wrong? Or is this some kind of glitch? Maybe there are only forty curious minds questions, and now I’ll be stuck with this…

    Plies and Pages

    The Book I Keep Rewriting (and Sometimes Forget to Read) There are books I’ve read twice. Sometimes. Maybe. But I have to wait long enough that I forget what happens. Otherwise? I get bored. Predictability is one of those itchy sweaters I can’t wait to tear off. If I can guess the next sentence, the…

  • Dusty Dreams and Dollar Signs

    Dusty Dreams and Dollar Signs

    What would you create if you didn’t have to worry about money? Me? Something for Burning Man. Obviously. I don’t know exactly what, but it would be wild, raw, and beautiful, and probably involve movement, sound, dust, and tears—maybe even all four. If money weren’t an obstacle, I’d pour myself into performance. Not just any…
